I am unable to access the system because the system is set with access by administrator and Password. I do not remember the password and so am unable to access the system. I can not reformat the disk because important data is stored in the Hard drive.Can any one suggest how I can login, please?

In the older machines,if you remove the c-mos battery for a moments,(30 seconds) it will go to a defaut state. This will clear any passwords you may have stored. Now with that said, you will need to set-up your BIOS perimeters again. You can use the default settings if you wish. This will NOT erase/modify any files or programs on your hard drive.For the newer machines, the password can be reset to default in the BIOS section as you first turn on the computer. In some cases tho, it may be necesary to remove the battery also. Be sure to put the battery back in as it keeps the computer time and date stamp running after the machine is turned off/shut down.
